Grim

Cheap but very grim. Owners haven’t spent a penny on it forever. Nothing finished even the fitting of the floors or removing old furniture. I don’t mind cheap and I don’t mind rustic, but strikes me of money for nothing.

Hostel Not Hotel

I did get a room to myself as expected but it was a bunk room with little in the way of furniture. I cheap double bed with thin mattress, 2 homemade bunk beds that sees mattresses on the floor and some lockers. No wardrobe, no chair etc. Whilst I appreciate that this is a hostel not a hotel, I did pay a hotel price for my room. The room itself the windows did not open so getting ventilation was difficult.

The bed was comfy, though the room was worn and not very clean. The bathrooms were similarly well worn and not particularly clean. One shower was out of order and the other was barely working. It was very cheap though.

Grungiest place we have ever stayed. The showers were so bad we didnt want to touch anything. The lower bunk bed is on the floor. Behind the double bed along the baseboards was mold and yuck. You get what you pay for. Location Location Location

Located on a busy road. We were not able to do our own laundry. The laundry was returned damp to still very wet which made travelling on in Ireland very uncomfortable. Not recommend…

Quite at Home!

The staff (Rober and Adam) could not have been more amiable and helpful and sitting around a kitchen table for breakfast made me feel quite at home. The accommodations are adequate and clean, although the bare minimum and in need of some upkeep. Great location and surroundings.
